The Yankees were hoping Phil Hughes would be ready for a rehab start shortly, but MLB.com's Bryan Hoch reported a short time ago that a bullpen session did not go as planned.

Hughes stopped throwing after just 20 pitches and sounded despondent afterwards. “It’s just the same as before,” Hughes said. “It’s dead, nothing coming out. I didn’t bounce back from that long bullpen session like I would have liked. It’s just a lot of deadness.”

Manager Joe Girardi admitted to being concerned. For now Hughes is headed to see the Yankees' team physician.
